Cauliflower and apple soup

This one was a bit of a experiment. I was not convinced it was going to be approved by the family...surprisingly it was! This soup is reasonably simple in preparation and in taste. I'd make it again.

Ingredients

1 tsp olive oil
1 medium brown onion, finely chopped
1 clove(s)fresh garlic, crushed
1500g Cauliflower, raw (1 head) cut into floret
2 medium fresh green apple, Granny Smith, coarsely chopped
4 cup(s) vegetable stock (1L) (I used chicken)
1 tbs fresh chives, finely chopped

Instructions

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion, stirring, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant.

Add cauliflower, apple and stock and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes or until cauliflower and apple are tender.

Blend soup using a stick blender or food processor until smooth. Stir in cream, Season with salt and pepper. Serve sprinkled with chives.
